3.1.2. No sound amplification is used;
3.1.3. Participants do not violate any Board or institutional policy or engage in prohibited conduct; and
3.1.4. The General Guidelines outlined in Section C.2 are followed.

3.2. Nothing in this section 3 shall be interpreted as limiting the right of a student’s free expression elsewhere on campus, in keeping with the nature of the forum designated by the institution in which the expressive activity occurs and the implementation of Board Policy 6:13, so long as the expressive activities or related conduct do not violate any other applicable Board or institutional policy or constitute prohibited conduct.
3.3. An institution may not designate any outdoor area within its boundaries as a free speech zone or otherwise restrict the expressive activities of students, employees and their guests to particular outdoor areas within its boundaries in a manner that is inconsistent with this policy.

…

5.2. The institution shall require any student or student organization, planning a largescale event to contact the designated institutional office in advance of the large scale event.
